[Jive Turkey]

hey guys, new to this forum but have owned about 5 subaru's now, 2 of which extensively modified (jive turkey on nasioc too). recently got out of a BRZ and purchased a 2017 XV.

Researched this to no end but can't find anyone running anything aggressive.
seems like most are in the 40ish offsets or run the method which are +15.

i'm going to be running the 215/75/15 K02 tire, but the wheel fitment is what my question is about. i found a rally wheel that is +5 offset 15x7. Just want to know if any of you running methods have rubbing issues, i'm wondering what 10mm more of offset would do and if it will function fine. any input would be greatly appreciated.

Good so far, only a few hundred miles on the car. Don't have MPG before/after statistics since they went on before I drove the new car off the lot, but cruising at 60mph on flat hwy reads 40-42MPG on the real-time MPG display. Noisier (of course) than the OEM Geolanders but that's to be expected. IMO they aren't bad at all especially if you consider the aggressive tread pattern. I'm sure they'll be awesome in the dirt/sand. We'll see on my first off-road adventure March 19th. Have Anderson lift and Gorilla skid/grill guard to install before that.

These are amazing! Before lift etc. did they rub at all? Do you know the true tire height? Calculated seems to be ~27''.

Can anyone here shed some light on the pros/cons of 15" vs 16" with A/T's on them.

According to calculations, our stock tires should fit without issues on a 17x8 rim, but would that leave the rim too exposed for everyday normal use?

Since I finally decided to take a picture of my car with it's wheels on it, I thought I'd finally contribute to this thread. Gunmetal Enkei YS5's 18x8 with Michelin Pilot Sport a/s 3 plus tires.

Hey, nice rims, but I have to ask - where did you get those running boards? Have never seen those before for the XV.

Thanks, I got the running board from China and ship over to Singapore via sea freight. They are heavy and sturdy, able to withstand 2~3 adults standing on the running board.
